Real Estate Entrepreneurs Without This Trait Have a Much Lower Chance of Success

If you truly break down the top real estate executives that have really strong, highly effective teams that love to work together you will find their leader will be, tenacious, have vision, forward thinking, team leader, good communicator but first and foremost they will have emotional maturity. If you are without an awareness of your own emotions and the ability to manage them, you won’t be able to manage other people or your business effectively.

What is emotional maturity?  Emotional maturity is when someone can manage their emotions no matter their circumstances. They know how to respond to tough situations and still keep their cool. It's a skill set they can consistently work on over time.

Here’s a good example- an employee makes a mistake, your immediate response might be to correct the mistake and move on. An emotionally mature leader would notice that impulse, then decide if it may be better to listen to why the team member made the mistake and walk them through the thought process and see if there is a possibility there could be a more effective method for long-term success. 

Building a strong team is easier with emotional maturity.  Today more than ever your organization achieves its goals through a series of zoom calls, conference calls, daily conversations, interactions and decisions. These interactions involve humans, and the more emotionally intelligent we are, the more effective your team will be on all levels. Invest in your people and you will find that you have more success and longevity, plus, team members who feel a sense of belonging and connection at work will be more creative and strategic because they feel safe sharing ideas and taking risks, which isn’t possible with a leader you’re afraid of.
